Henry Moore's sculpture is among the most recognized and influential of the twentieth century. His sculpture and drawings have been exhibited worldwide, and his monumental public works can be seen throughout the United States and Europe. Some of the artist's sculptures appear more abstract than others, but all exhibit a love of natural forms and materials, and a great simplicity. A profound reverence for the dignity of the human (usually female) form led Moore to execute a series of variations on the reclining figure throughout his life.http://www.rollins.edu/cfam/pages/collection/moore.html
